Good test taking place for ielts computer-based general training. The monitors were good and responsive, just need to quickly get used to the mouse sensitivity. They take away your notes after each section. Candidate must arrive 20 minutes before the time stamp, I arrived 10 minutes before time stamp and was still let in.

ID checking was kind of obnoxious, they checked everyone IDs 3 times, once right before entering the test room, and 2 more times during test taking, it was a little distracting. No bathroom break for the last 10 minutes of each section. You will not be given any extra time for breaks. Water bottle must be clear (no labels or markings).

Horrible Experience. I was constantly bothered during my exam for facial verification. Not once but thrice. Come on guys, you already verified it before exam and once again upon entry to the examination hall with passport. . Why would you bother an exam candidate especially during the test? While you already checked it twice. In fact, you could do it a zillion times before the exam commencement and not bother a candidate during exam time, especially when we pay for it. Don't you trust your initial judgment ? Jesus Christ !

I took my CELPIP test on November 16 and had a terrible experience. During the speaking test, I was talking at a normal volume, but the examiner came and interrupted me in the middle of my exam, After that im done!. After, when I raised my hand for same reason, no one responded.

The headphones they provided were extremely cheap, and the cabls were all over the table. I have never seen CPU on the table! It didn’t feel like a professional testing environment at all.

Very disappointed with the setup and management. CELPIP is an expensive exam, and the test centre should provide a quiet, organized, and respectful environment!

I took my IELTS exam last April 2025. Scheduling the test online was easy, as well as the online payment. During the actual test, I liked that the proctors were always around to give instructions, and you could easily clarify things. I had to use the washroom, and proper protocols were observed too. I respect the professionalism of the staff in general.
